More than 450 guests from across South Florida and beyond kicked off the evening with a cocktail reception at the exclusive LIV Nightclub. LIV offered up all the eye candy and wild fun one would expect, replete with winged “fairies” sparkling from head to toe, colorful lights, heart-pumping music, and an endless spread of food and drinks. After LIV, guests moved to the Fontainebleau’s Sparkle Ballroom where they were greeted by models adorned in exquisite luxury jewelry provided by Saks Fifth Avenue Bal Harbour. Beautifully decorated tables circled the dance floor while The Chase Band provided the music. Attendees also enjoyed bidding at the silent auction, which included exclusive getaways and one-of-a-kind items signed by several celebrities.
